Hey all.
I just finished a transfer case rebuild about 500 miles ago. Yesterday, I pulled the fill plug on the trans and transfer case as a quick check and had oil pouring out of the transfer case fil hole. The truck has been sitting for apx 3 weeks (if that matters any). I rebuilt with a terrain tamer kit from cruiser bros. If I remember correctly the common result of a damaged or bad transfer to transmission seal is oil pumping from the transfer case into the transmission (not the other way around). It would seem that if the seal was severely failed (or missing) gravity would move fluid from the trans to the transfer. Any other thoughts / actions before I pull the case and inspect?
Scratching my head on this one. If I forgot to put that seal in I may have to just sell the 40
Thx.
